Humans aren't the most welcoming species.

No, not really.

[how-it-all-ends.livejournal.com]

And yet they claim to want to experience more of the Universe as they understand it. I doubt I'll ever truly understand their hypocrisies.

[mrsharker.livejournal.com]

What are you... if it's not rude to ask?

[how-it-all-ends.livejournal.com]

It's not.

I am a friend of the Earth.

[a-mind-flip.livejournal.com]

OMFG you are so right, and I'm human. I mean, seriously. What did I do, you know?

[how-it-all-ends.livejournal.com]

I don't.

[a-mind-flip.livejournal.com]

I didn't mean it like that. I meant... Oh nevermind. So, who are you?

[how-it-all-ends.livejournal.com]

You're asking for my name? Klaatu.

[star-core.livejournal.com]

I've been through that, yes.

[how-it-all-ends.livejournal.com]

They didn't react positively to your arrival either?

[star-core.livejournal.com]

No, but it seems to have changed since then.

[cjsullivan.livejournal.com]

I promise we're not all bad.

[how-it-all-ends.livejournal.com]

So I've come to realize. There is still hope for you yet.

[x-twenty3.livejournal.com]

You've noticed that, too?

[how-it-all-ends.livejournal.com]

Yes, but I'm slowly being reeducated. On closer acquaintance they aren't so uncivilized.

[x-twenty3.livejournal.com]

*shrugs slightly* Depends on who you're around.

[strangers-call.livejournal.com]

Humans are mean little pieces of meat.

[how-it-all-ends.livejournal.com]

They can be, yes, but I hope that there will be some changes in the near future.

[strangers-call.livejournal.com]

What changes?

[ohnot-again.livejournal.com]

I've met worse. But if you mean we're not very accepting of things we don't understand, you would be right.

[how-it-all-ends.livejournal.com]

Exactly. You are a fearful race.

[ohnot-again.livejournal.com]

From what I've seen, there is some reason to be fearful. Ignorance is by far the worse fault, and the unwillingness to accept what some of us know is the truth.

I take it you are referring to yourself not being welcomed? In which case... *takes his hand in a friendly handshake with a smile* Welcome.

[how-it-all-ends.livejournal.com]

*there's a pause - after all, last time he reached out he was shot - before he presses his hand against her, not quite holding it. Handshaking is an unfamiliar gesture* Thank you.

[psychette10.livejournal.com]

*some of her cheeriness is dropped as she studies his reaction*
Oh dear, you must have really been unwelcomed. No need to be nervous, I don't bite and I wouldn't hurt a fly.
My name's Jackie, what's yours?
